Give Your Dog a Bone – The Practical Commonsense Way to Feed Dogs for a Long Healthy Life

Give Your Dog a Bone by Ian Billinghurst is a groundbreaking guide to canine nutrition that challenges conventional approaches to feeding dogs, advocating for a return to natural, whole-food diets. Recognized internationally for his work in raw feeding and canine health, Billinghurst presents a practical, commonsense method for feeding dogs in a way that supports long-term vitality, dental health, and overall well-being.

In Give Your Dog a Bone, Billinghurst introduces the concept of the “BARF” (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) diet, explaining the benefits of raw meat, bones, vegetables, and supplements over commercial kibble and processed foods. The book provides detailed guidance on meal composition, feeding schedules, and portioning, making it highly practical for dog owners seeking to implement a healthier feeding regime. Billinghurst also addresses common misconceptions about raw diets, including safety concerns and nutritional balance, offering evidence-based explanations and real-world case studies.

What sets Give Your Dog a Bone apart is its emphasis on the natural biology of dogs, helping readers understand canine digestion, dental health, and behaviour in the context of diet. Billinghurst combines scientific insight with accessible, reader-friendly guidance, making complex nutritional concepts understandable for any dog owner.

Give Your Dog a Bone remains a seminal reference in the field of canine nutrition. It is ideal for pet owners, breeders, and animal enthusiasts looking to optimise their dog’s health and longevity through informed, natural feeding practices.
